"Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of
things not seen."
- Hebrews 11:1 (NKJV)
Faith is the opposite of fear. Without faith, it is impossible
to please God. Faith in Christ secures freedom from condemnation;
it is the necessary component of saving grace. Faith is fellowship
with Jesus Christ. Faith trusts in the Word of God. Faith is a
conviction that Jesus Christ is Messiah. Faith is experiencing life
with Jesus Christ. Faith in Jesus Christ provides confidence. Faith
in Jesus Christ is power to act. Grace and faith are the first
principles of the Gospel. Faith in Jesus Christ believes in his
attributes of character and perfection. True faith, by Jesus
Christ's definition, always involves surrender to the will of
God.
Be sure and secure in faith
The Armenian Church Synaxarion is a collection of saints' lives
according to the day of the year on which each saint is celebrated.
Part of the great and varied Armenian liturgical tradition from the
turn of the first millennium, the first Armenian Church Synaxarion
represented the logical culmination of a long and steady
development of what is today called the cult of the saints. This
volume, the first Armenian-English edition, is the sixth of a
twelve-volume series - one for each month of the year - and is
ideal for personal devotional use or as a valuable resource for
anyone interested in saints.
An Accordion Book doesn’t open, it unfolds. One side is filled
with beautiful watercolour images of an animal: sometimes in
motion, sometimes at rest. The other is filled with text – poems,
descriptions, invocations – inspired by the same animal.Together
they work as spells to summon the animal’s spirit. Jackie Morris
has painted them using antique watercolours, some from boxes which
hadn't been opened for over 150 years, woken from their slumber
with a single drop of water.Fox and Otter are the first two
Accordions in a series that will go on to include Hare,Owl,Hound
and Cat among many others.
